Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what assessment the Government's Disability Unit has made of the effect on disabled people of the ending of temporary easements in the welfare system introduced during the first lockdown, including a pause on sanctions, a suspension of benefit reassessments, and a suspension of benefit recovery; and what steps she has taken in response to that assessment.

I refer the Hon Member to the answer I gave to PQ UIN 161760 on 8 March 2021.
